Issue Description

I would like to output some information in the report when all tests have been executed. I used the [AfterTestRun] hook to do that.

Unfortunately, my Console.WriteLine output does not seem to appear in the report. Even when I'm printing some basic informations eg :

[AfterTestRun]
public static void AfterTestRun(ITestRunnerManager testRunnerManager, ITestRunner testRunner)
{
    Console.WriteLine("blablabla");
}

So I had to use the [AfterStep] hook and do tricky in order to archive my goal.

Are you aware of this issue and is there a solution to be able to print informations inside my report from the [AfterTestRun] hook ?

Thanks in advance

Steps to Reproduce

[AfterTestRun]
public static void AfterTestRun(ITestRunnerManager testRunnerManager, ITestRunner testRunner)
{
    Console.WriteLine("blablabla");
}

You can inject ISpecFlowOutputHelper and then call WriteLine method that will output the message into the report.

I actually have the following code :

[AfterTestRun]
public static void AfterTestRun(ISpecFlowOutputHelper specFlowOutputHelper)
{
    specFlowOutputHelper.WriteLine("blablabla");
    //Console.WriteLine("blablabla");
}

It goes through the AfterTestRun function but doesn't display the given string inside the report.

Note : I use a custom report template

The SpecFlow+Runner implementation of the ISpecFlowOutputHelper uses Console.WriteLine in the background. So there is no difference. Output in the TestRun hooks aren't displayed, because it can't be assigned to a scenario. It is the same for Feature hooks.

You have this problem with all test runners. It is not limited to the SpecFlow+Runner.
